 So many people...have their problems
 I'm not interested...in their problems
 I guess I've...experienced some problems
 But now I've...made some decisions

 Takes a lot of time to push away the nonsense
 Take my compassion...Push it as far as it goes
 My interest level's dropping, my interest level is dropping
 I've heard all I want to, I don't want to hear any more

 What are you, in love with your problems?
 I think you take it...a little too far
 It's...not so cool to have so many problems
 But don't expect me to explain your indecisions

 Go...talk to your analyst, isn't that what they're paid for
 You walk, you talk...You still function like you used to
 It's not a question...Of your personality or style
 Be a little more selfish, it might do you some good
